September 15
It’s our great hope as St. Joseph’s Parish Pastoral Council and staff that you can join us this Monday evening, September 17. We will offer an open forum at 7pm so that our Council members, lay and ordained, can hear what’s on your mind and heart. We will continue to listen in different ways throughout the year as we plan for the future of St. Joe’s. Come at 6pm and join us for prayer and a dish-to-pass supper. -
August 18
As a priest for 50 years and being in seminary formation for 12 years prior to ordination in 1968, I am deeply ashamed of this criminal violation of the sacred trust given to priests to proclaim the love and care of Jesus to our young parishioners. We need to move heaven and earth to uncover whatever horrors of sexual abuse remain secret and do everything in our power to prevent this from ever happening again.
